Abiotic 

For Abiotic testing, we would need more help using today's technology. As mentioned before, we will test the PH, Phosphate, and Nitrate using our testing tablets. For PH, we fill the test tube to 10ml, put the tablet in, shake it till dissolved, and take the measurement. For Phosphate, we fill the test tube to 5ml, put the tablet in, shake it till dissolved, wait for 5 minutes, then take measurements. For Nitrate, we fill it up to 5 ml also, put the first tablet in, shake it till dissolved, then put the test tube into the sleeve to block light, and put tablet 2 in. Shake it in the sleeve for two min and then wait 5min to take a measurement. For turbidity, we fill it up to the 25ml line and put it on the card to see the number. Furthermore, for dissolved oxygen, we use the machine and stir it around in the water to get the actuary count. 

Some picture examples will be shown:
